Hey guys, im having some issues with my current setup.
GPU: nvidia 3070ti
Xorg, qtile, nvidia ( pacman -S nvidia)
I have 4k 144hz monitor and trying to set 144hz / 120Hz ( hdmi 2.1 ) but once i do - i get blank screen and monitor shows me - No signal detected.
Had some issues with qtile and wayland - it starts but screen blinks, nvidia-settings shows 0 options for X Server Display Configuration and no mouse pointer detected, so switched to Xorg and qtile.
Fresh Arch Linux install.
Also i have enabled drm in my grub config file , removed kms from /etc/mkinitcpio.conf.
Quick edit/update:
if i lover my res to 1440p - i can use 144 or 120Hz so i have a question - Is there some sort of issue with HDMI and nVidia in Arch or ( Linux ) in general ? Im sure if i change my hdmi cable to DP cable it will work ...
EDIT #2: Fixed. Connected to DP.

Cable.
edid-decode /sys/class/drm/card0-HDMI0/edid # replace HDMI0 w/ the actual output
You need DSC 1.2 support for this.
Cable.
xrandr --verbose
Also cable.
Does the monitor have a displayport input?
Did I mention the cable? (needs to be "HDMI Premium High Speed mit Ethernet" or "HDMI Ultra High Speed")
Since ppl. seem to be casting 5+ m long HDMI cables through their living rooms: How long is the cable?
Edit:
Is there some sort of issue with HDMI
Yes. It's called "HDCP".
Also the cable grading is a complete mess.

Well i changed to DP so its working now .. but on windows works on HDMI cable ( its 2.1 hdmi cable and its 2m long only)
Later i will run edid-decode command and let you know.

There is no "2.1 hdmi cable" - the bullshit marketing terms in #2 are the official grading and do not align with any protocol standard.
"complete mess"
but on windows

I have the same issue, hdmi connection, windows can 4k res 144hz, linux will black screen, no signal. Did you solve this problem with hdmi connection?

Fixed. Connected to DP.
OP never provided the data from #2 - notably not the cable grading (no, it's not "2.1")
windows can
Is this based on sth. windows tells you or the monitor tells you?
On a limb, blacklist snd_hda_codec_hdmi (in case it's the sound stream that breaks the camels back)
